Duvall earned an outfield spot on the District 3 list for
Division II, including softball players in the PBC, South Atlantic
Conference and Conference Carolinas.

Owning a 3.65 GPA in political science with a minor in Spanish,
Duvall was a starter in left field for the Bobcats this season,
playing in 37 games with 32 starts. Duvall hit .231 with nine runs
scored and four RBI. The senior was also 9-for-10 in stolen base
attempts.

Duvall now moves on to the national Division II ballot, with
Academic All-American winners to be announced later this month. She
is just the sixth GC Softball player to earn district honors, the
last being Mandy Chandler and Lindsey
Swanson in 2009.

The Bobcats showed much improvement in 2012, finishing 25-24
with a 9-11 PBC mark, good for seventh and a PBC playoff spot after
holding the top spot in the conference standings early in the
season. GC put three players on the all-region teams as
Haley Burnett (Columbus, Ga.), Whitney
Okvist (Kennesaw, Ga.) and Kelsea Martin (Dacula,
Ga.) all took honors.
